If not, and if that is a fancy brushed metal cover you have, you can buy a trailing edge dimmer module and fit that to the metal cover rather than buying a complete unit.
I recommend Varilight but there are other good options available. My Varilight dimmers are silent which is important to me as the living room light switch is 2 feet away from my right ear where I normally sit to listen to music and watch TV.
A man walked into a car showroom.
He said to the salesman, “My wife would like to talk to you about the Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
Salesman said, “We haven't got a Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
The man replied, “You have now mate".1 -

or buy 2 x V COM modules for £22 on ebay and fit them into that switch
I've not yet noticed a difference between V PRO and V COM, there probably is a difference as there are millions of lights and bulbs but every one I've ever used has been fine with either, and the COM is cheaper0
